Manila

[Bob70]

After island-hopping stops at Hawaii, Midway Island, Wake Island and Guam, China Clipper successfully completed its inaugural run by landing in Manila, November 29, 1935. The journey had taken 59 hours and 48 minutes flying time, and had traversed 8,210 miles. With this one historic flight, the world had become smaller; the China Clipper took 6 1/2 days to do what would take 21 days in the fastest passenger ship.

Nice shots but somehow I don't think the China Clipper had GPS and a weather radar....

So is it safe to assume you didn't fly the historic flight route...?

I just installed the aircraft into FSX, and i'm thinking that after a little editing, I may have to fly it across the Pacific...

Nooooo I didn't. That's a long way across the Pacific. I just had Scotty beam me over there.

I spent a few minutes removing the GPS from the panel, and adding a few other gauges to the aircraft, and now i'm flying it from Seattle down the coast to San Francisco.

It's actually not a bad aircraft

Any chance you could tell me how to remove the GPS and radar screen and whatever else you did? You could send me a PM. How about posting a panel shot of how it looks now. Thanks

I really didn't do much to the Panel, except remove the GPS. When I downloaded the initial package, there was a folder that was named 'Move to Gauges', but inside were the GPS and Radar gauges, so I didn't even install them to begin with. But there was still a GPS on the panel, which I removed from the VC. The gauges I did add were in pop-up windows. I could take the time to put them into the VC, but pop-up windows are faster. I installed a vintage style radio in a pop-up window, and a vintage style autopilot controll in another pop-up window, I also installed a pop-up window that has a vintage style heading indicator/heading bug, and another vintage VOR1 Indicator that I like


I may take the time to replace some of the DC3 panel gauges, and add some more gauges I like, to make the panel better

Thanks. That sounds easy enough to do. Yep, I remember that folder. I'll just chase down those gages and delete them.
